[PMID: 38534645 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics13030210] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2024] [Revised: 02/17/2024] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen that contaminates food-processing environments and persists within biofilms on equipment, thus reaching final products by cross-contamination. With the growing demand for clean-label products, the search for natural antimicrobials as biopreservants, such as bacteriocins, has shown promising potential. In this context, this study aimed to evaluate the anti-listerial action of bacteriocins produced by Enterococcus lactis LBM BT2 in an alternative medium containing sugarcane molasses (SCM). Molecular analyses were carried out to characterize the strain, including the presence of bacteriocin-related genes. In the kinetic study on SCM medium E. lactis, LBM BT2 showed biomass and bacteriocin productions similar to those observed on a sucrose-based medium (control), highlighting the potential of the sugarcane molasses as a low-cost substrate. Stability tests revealed that the molecule remained active in wide ranges of pH (4-10) and temperature (60-100 °C). Furthermore, the proteolytic treatment reduced the biomolecule's antimicrobial activity, highlighting its proteinaceous nature. After primary purification by salting out and tangential flow filtration, the bacteriocin-like inhibitory substance (BLIS) showed bacteriostatic activity on suspended L. monocytogenes cells and against biofilm formation at a concentration of 0.625 mg/mL. These results demonstrate the potential of the produced BLIS as a biopreservative in the food industry.

Abstract
This study was carried out to select the bacteriocinogenic strains among Enterococcus strains isolated from Ukrainian traditional dairy products using a low-cost media for screening, that containing molasses and steep corn liquor. A total of 475 Enterococcus spp. strains were screened for antagonistic activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Listeria monocytogenes indicator strains. The initial screening revealed that 34 Enterococcus strains during growth in low-cost medium containing corn steep liquor, peptone, yeast extract, and sucrose produced metabolites with inhibition activity against at least of the indicator strains used. Enterocin genes entA, entP, and entB were detected in 5 Enterococcus strains by PCR assay. Genes of enterocins A and P were found in E. faecalis 58 and Enterococcus sp. 226 strains, enterocins B and P - in Enterococcus sp. 423, enterocin A - in E. faecalis 888 and E. durans 248 strains. Bacteriocin-like inhibitory substances (BLIS) produced by these Enterococcus strains were thermostable and sensitive to proteolytic enzymes. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the isolation of enterocin-producing wild Enterococcus strains from traditional Ukrainian dairy products using a low-cost media for screening bacteriocinogenic strains. Strains E. faecalis 58, Enterococcus sp. 423, and Enterococcus sp. 226 are promising candidates for practical use as producers of bacteriocins with inhibitory activity against L. monocytogenes using molasses and steep corn liquor as cheap sources of carbon and nitrogen, that can significantly reduce the cost of industrial bacteriocin production. Further studies will be required to determine the dynamic of bacteriocin production, its structure, and mechanisms of antibacterial action.

Abstract
The discarding of wastes into the environment is a significant problem for many communities. Still, food waste can be used for lactic acid bacteria (LAB) growth. Here, we evaluated three growth media equivalent to de Mann Rogosa Sharpe (MRS), using apple bagasse, yeast waste, fish flour, forage oats, and cheese whey. Cell-free supernatants of eight LAB strains were tested for antimicrobial activity against nine indicator microorganisms. The supernatants were also evaluated for protein content, reducing sugars, pH, and lactic acid concentration. Cell-free supernatants from fish flour broth (FFB) LAB growth were the most effective. The strain Leuconostoc mesenteroides PIM5 presented the best activity in all media. L. mesenteroides CAL14 completely inhibited L. monocytogenes and strongly inhibited Bacillus cereus (91.1%). The strain L. mesenteroides PIM5 consumed more proteins (77.42%) and reducing sugars (56.08%) in FFB than in MRS broth (51.78% and 30.58%, respectively). Culture media formulated with agroindustrial wastes positively improved the antimicrobial activity of selected LAB, probably due to the production of antimicrobial peptides or bacteriocins.

Abstract
Bacteriocins are proteinaceous, ribosomally synthesized bio-molecules having major roles in food preservation due to their antimicrobial action against food spoilage microorganisms. These have gained importance in the last decades because of increasing interest in natural products and their applications in the field of biopreservation, pharmaceutical, aquaculture, livestock, etc. Their production is quite expensive which includes the cost of synthetic media and downstream processing of which 30% of the total production cost relies on synthetic media and nutritional supplements used for growth of microorganisms. The low cost agro-industrial by-products, rich in nutritional supplements, can act as a good substitute for high valued synthetic media. This review provides comprehensive information on the use of cost effective, renewable agro-industrial by-products as substrates for the production of bacteriocins and their application in food as biopreservatives.
